rebuilding RPMs (upgrade issues)

[Randy Edwards]

   My track record upgrading Red Hat has been spotty.  Some work, some don't.

   I think another consideration also has to be the long-term stability.  If 
you hand upgrade, are you sure you'll get everything?

   Either way, I'd opt for option A.  It'd probably be less time consuming and 
I know I'd feel more confident with the freshly installed system.
